This award provides partial support for the acquisition of a versatile, high-resolution, analytical scanning electron microscope (HRSEM). The instrument will serve the research needs of at least 15 investigators from several different departments or centers on the Texas Tech University campus. The research areas to be positively impacted are diverse and multidisciplinary - they include: plant pathology, slime mold development and cryopreservation, plant functional genomics and genetics, reproductive endocrinology, geochemistry, igneous petrology and structural geology, molecular dynamics of liquid crystals, catalysis, metals research, and nanotechnology. The acquisition of this instrumentation will have a large impact on infrastructure in the region, and will also aid in establishing collaborative and interdisciplinary relationships with industry and other universities. The institution is committed to graduate and undergraduate research training, and is also active in community outreach.

该奖项为购买多功能、高分辨率、分析扫描电子显微镜 (HRSEM) 提供部分支持。 该仪器将满足德克萨斯理工大学校园内多个不同部门或中心的至少 15 名研究人员的研究需求。 受到积极影响的研究领域是多元化和多学科的，包括：植物病理学、粘菌发育和低温保存、植物功能基因组学和遗传学、生殖内分泌学、地球化学、火成岩学和结构地质学、液晶分子动力学、催化、金属研究和纳米技术。 收购该仪器将对该地区的基础设施产生重大影响，还将有助于与行业和其他大学建立合作和跨学科关系。 该机构致力于研究生和本科生的研究培训，并积极开展社区外展活动。
